At last! A place where I can find kindred spirits! And perhaps pickup an Akiba sugar daddy!

So, how do you find the geek girl of your damp damp dreams? Ikebukuro is confusing place to go on a girl geek hunt. The location is less obvious than Akiba's pervert stores (just like a lesbian bars are less obvious than boy bars).

There are two places in Ikebukuro to find them: The west exit of Ikebukuro station headding to the universities has been an place for odd girls for more than 20 years. Also "adjacent to the Sunshine City building complex, one comes to the mecca of female geekdom: Kei Books"---Geek Girls
Read my drinking buddy, Ryann, of MSN-Mainichi News:
Otome Road Yaoi girls, never miss Otome Road! Sankei Web reported the current trend of Ikebukuro district where six doujinshi shops gather almost in a row. They mostly deal doujinshi for women in contrast with Akihabara where many otaku shops aim at male customers. When the manga information magazine, Puff, introduced the area, it was called Otome Road.... Access: 10-minute walk from the East exit of JR Ikebukuro Station. Otome Road faces the famous shopping building, Sunshine City.

“Slouch”?
All Japanese are supposed to slouch, hee, hee. It’s called “nekozai” (rounded cat back).

Having a posture that’s too upright is considered being too stuck up (and terrible form when wearing kimono).
